MALVERN, Iowa—Officials from the United States Modified Touring Series are pleased to announce that Malvern Trust & Savings Bank has joined the family of marketing partners with the 16-year-old dirt racing organization.

It’s seems only fitting that the Official Bank of Dirt Track Racing is now the Official Bank of the USMTS.

“As the Official Bank of Dirt Track Racing, we are extremely proud of our affiliation with the USMTS and we take our involvement with Todd and Janet very seriously,” said Malvern Trust & Savings Bank President Jay Burdic. “Racing isn't just a hobby to our bank. It is part of our long-term strategic plan. As many racers and fans have already experienced with our bank, lending is more than just tax returns and down payments. It's about relationships and understanding the culture of racing. It is this understanding that separates the Malvern Trust & Savings Bank from most other banks, and we couldn't be more excited to be a part of the greatest modified touring series in the United States.”

In addition to contributing cash awards to the season-ending points fund for the USMTS Casey’s Cup Series powered by S&S Fishing & Rental, Malvern Trust & Savings Bank will also be the presenting sponsor of the USMTS event slated for Thursday, May 21, at the Crawford County Speedway in Denison, Iowa, and will add more than $2,500 to prize money pool.

It’s been nearly ten years since the USMTS last visited the Crawford County Speedway. Kelly Shryock left with the win in 2005 on the former half-mile configuration (it’s now a 3/8-mile). Mike Chasteen won there in 2000 and a pair of shows during the inaugural USMTS season in 1999 went to Ron Jones and Steve Kosiski, who enjoyed a long partnership with Malvern Trust & Savings Bank during his racing career.

That May 21 show will also showcase the Holley Iron Man Series featuring USRA Stock Cars and USRA B-Mods.

Malvern Trust & Savings Bank is located in Malvern, Iowa—approximately 35 miles southeast of the Council Bluffs/Omaha metro—and for over 65 years they have served the area as a true “community” bank.

Whether you’re nearby in Mills County, Iowa, or across the country, Malvern Trust & Savings Bank wants the opportunity to serve the financial needs of those involved in the racing community. Let them put their personal service and responsiveness to work for you.
